I agree tech bro wise completely. But there’s all sorts of Engineering strides to come still. Plenty we don’t yet know about.

But computing has been a solved problem for many years on all but the most intense levels. Since then silicon valley has been desperately trying to hang on to their former glory days like a has-been football player in his 50s

What book? The passage above seems great. Kind of Terry Pratchett–esque

I love these puzzles btw

I have learned I perpetually guess low. I have turned to throwing away my first guess and pretending it was low, then guessing a good bit higher.

I’m still always low

Okay, I’ll ask the obvious. Why?

As much crap as Nintendo gets here (plenty of it well deserved), the way they treat their employees seems to be quite good. And in the face of whatever the fuck is going on in most tech companies, it’s nice to see

First of all, what an incredibly detailed and cool post. Thanks for that!

I don’t enjoy racing games much (though I actually raced cars and motorcycles for a decade, and then sim raced for a few years), but it’s a great reminder to re play wipeout and the old school burnout games.

I will say, on a similarish but different note, I loved Snow runner. It’s a “get stuck in the mud” sim with friends. Their recent sequel is… Weird? Closer to truck Factorio. It’s not the same game imo but I appreciate the fresh view

Hemorrhage money to kill or buy smaller studios, then jack the price and tank the quality. Shove some AI in it for good measure.

You’ll own nothing and you’ll be happy about it

Our US one when we lived there: 1960s

Our Danish one now: 17… 50s? 60s? It’s hard to know

Okay I love this. I did terribly today but I appreciate the work that went into all of it and also the cool stat pages after

AVL represent

It does, so maybe it’s not the best example. But the labor of love part for sure

I feel like the labor of love part being something like Factorio, Satisfactory, NMS is fitting. Also grand scale, holds up well, graphics aren’t the main point

If you eat just one bite you’ll never have to eat again for the rest of your life!

So like if you search

鈴鹿サーキット(Suzuka Circuit)

You get a link to suzukacircuit.jp as a top result, but to navigate directly there I think you have to type suzukacircuit.jp in Latin characters

You can often change your kanji + kana into romanji (latin characters) as an autocorrect suggestion

Yesssss it’s language Jones!

There’s a LOT of toggles for difficulty/accessibility in there in case you get stuck and don’t wanna grind, just fyi

Solid title; I get that reference

It’s also basically how the Adeptus Mechanicus operates in 40k. Lots of worshipping the old tech, preserving it, and there’s some limited giant machines that they could never fathom rebuilding or even fixing so they’re very protective of them

I posted another article, it’s just a bad translation. Her office is moving away from M$ Office only for now. I’ve heard talks of it in other Danish companies too
